In Brief
Search queries spoken aloud to voice assistants like Siri, Alexa, or Google Assistant.
Voice search uses speech recognition to process spoken queries through voice assistants (Siri, Alexa, Google Assistant) or voice-enabled search. Voice queries tend to be longer and more conversational than typed searches. Optimizing for voice search involves natural language content, question-based headings, featured snippet optimization, local SEO, and speakable schema markup.
